SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 463,996, dated November 24,1891` Application filed December 1 1890. Serial No. 373,153. (No model To a/ZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH W. SCHLOSS, a citizen of the United States, residing in New York, county of New York, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sample-Cards, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to sample cards, the object being to provide means whereby the quality and appearance of an article or piece of goods may be shown without bringing in to use the article or goods itself.
The invention consists in the device hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l represents a face view of my improved sample card, and Fig. 2 represents a transverse section of same.
A represents a sheet of pasteboard or other suitable material serving as the base or card on which the displayis made. It may or may not be one leaf of a portfolio and may or may not be provided with a frame a. To the face of the card one or more Strips b of paper or other suitable material is attached by securing one edge b and the ends b2 b2 by glue or tacks, leaving the other edge free, thus forming an elongated pocket. The strips are provided With a series of openings b3 arranged in va row throughout the length of the strips. c represents the materials or samples of goods. They are in small pieces, and one end is passed under the free edge of the strip b and secured in such a position that they will be exposed through the openin gs b3 and also outside of the strip b. n
In making up garments it is desirable that different parts thereof should match in color and sometimes in texture. For instance, the binding-braid should often be the same color as the buttons, or the buttons should be the color of the goods to which they are attached. Accordingly it has been customary to display samples of the braid or the goods and the buttons side by side on the same card; but the buttons are of considerable thickness and weight and therefore objectionable for mailing purposes. For this reason and various others a means for displaying the buttons, or rather the effect produced by the buttons, becomes a desideratum. It is accomplished by my invention. The circular openings in the strips b are made the same shape and diameter as the face of a button, so thatthe fabric which is seen through the openings presents the same appearance as the face of a button. A quality and color of braid and button are therefore displayed Without the use of the button itself. Sometimes buttons are made by covering molds with the same material the garment is made of, in which case samples of both may be displayed by placing an end of the piece of goods beneath an opening in the pocket of the sample card.
It is obvious that the opening representing the buttons may be made of various sizes and shapes to correspond to different buttons.
A sample-card thus constructed and provided with pieces of braid or other goods, as described, has the advantages of representing a piece of goods and its matching button without rendering the said card too thick or heavy for convenience in mailing or other purposes, and furthermore the protruding or free end of the piece of goods may be freely handled for examination of its texture.
Having thus described my invention, I claim- A sample-card having a series of openings and provided with pieces of suitable goods, a portion of each of which is displayed through an opening, and another portion of the same piece protruding beyond theedge of the card having the opening, and means for retaining the pieces of goods in the position, as described.
In Witness whereof I have hereunto signed my name in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JOS. W. SCHLOSS.
